Looks good, Nice to see another 5spd 4cyl around here. Is the pic with the sportline kit? Doesnt appear to be lowered. (I have the same exact car in Pearl white) Add some OEM foglights and rear disc brakes and youll be in business!

im looking for the fogs right now. dont really plan on doing the rear disc conversion though. that is with the springs on. maybe you have 17inch wheels? yours does look much better though. no wheel gap ftw.

also one thing i wish dodge did was just tape the molding on. i hate, HATE side moldings, and these have clips in the doors. lamesauce. im also looking for a stock r/t spoiler, and a new right headlamp, because im getting sick of buffing it every other month.

also, has anyone done any mods to the bulb retainer thing for the headlight? my hids have a big lump on the bulb and the retainer wont fit over it. i just have ducttape holding them in.

I bought my fog lights years ago, off someone on another forum. Rear disc conversion really helped out with braking. The front rotors are tiny for the car (R/T V6 brakes are a little bigger) and I personally like the way they look.
You mention the stock R/T spoiler, are you thinking the Eclipse spoiler? The Stratus coupes never came from the factory with a spoiler.
Im not sure what you mean for the headlight bulb retainer. The little piece the covers the top of the bulb inside the housing? You can bake open the headlights to paint, and to do an HID retrofit using HID projectors.

im talking the spoiler on the sedan then.

as for the headlights, im talking about the thing that screws the bulb to the lamp.
